The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not wont; He makes me de down in green pastures.He leads me beside still waters; He restores my soul.He leads me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake.Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death; I fear no evil.For Thou art with me. Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me.Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies.Thou anointest my head with oil, and most excellent is Thy Cup which brings me joy!Surely goodness and mercy shad follow me all the days of my life.And I shall dwetl in the house of the LORD for ever.
